It’s got this hilarious, layered, made-up language soundtrack, while you roll and bounce a blobby yellow character around, running into strawberry-like treats a avoiding little spikey urchin guys. The character is all fat, roly poly and smiling. It’s good times.

Oh, and here’s the best part: the blob actually sings while you roll him around, and you can split him up into individual little blobs, and when you do one of them keeps singing while the rest form a kind of chorus, and… and… *squee!*

I have to say I’m with AlmightyRaisin here. The game is great – I played a demo version of it (we borrowed a PSP from someone who had downloaded it) earlier this summer. It’s really fantastic. This and Katamari are the chief reasons to by a Playstation, I think (we’re considering it…).

Ack! Now I’m sucked into a game! From jaypo’s site, I was playing Cats – which is sooo addictive. My real cat was trying to get my attention (“MOM! You PROMISED to feed me!!!!”) and I actually said, “Just a minute sweetie, let me finish this game.” Oh, how could I have sunk so low?! So feeling duly chastised by my conscience, I quit the game and decided to be responsible.

oh no! I know better than to click on that link of Jaypo’s! not me, no sireebob. nu-huh.
weeell, maybe one-click. just to see what got AmyH away from Elvis. just one peek.
mmmm. interesting… crabs and apples and penguins. cute but no big dea….omfg is that a Cow game!!!!

But now everything is byootiful because I love eggs!! I really really do love eggs–I love eggs so much, that for my twelfth birthday, my parents gave me a dozen eggs and every one had a *double yoke* !

I am NOT going to check out teh games tonight. I have been “addicted” to a “M.U.D” ….am very wary (poet.dont.knowit) of getting addicted to other “games”.
But….I will check them out soon…rainy,cold, sleety,crappy day…..I can stop anytime I want…I can..I can…

And, AmyH….woOT..MSU….I grad from there, my hubby from there, one kid from there, second kid in senior year…ok, you get it, …GO GREEN! :)))))))

jaypo,
What incredible parents you had. Giving you a dozen doubleyoked eggs on your 12th birthday. That is….eggxtravagant! Ha, I meant to say spectacular!

I have four rather old chickens. They aren’t laying too many eggs anymore, so I need to get a bunch o’ chicks in the spring. Of course, my old girls will live the life of pleasant retirement til they pass on to the great dustbath in the sky. We do NOT eat them. :)

Lauri,
Those who’ve never had chickens are missing out on one of the best entertainers in the animal kingdom! I always say they’re like fire and ocean waves–you watch can watch them for hours, they always do the same things, but somehow they do them different every time. An ex-bf had them and a good friend of mine has a lovely flock from which I get—FRESH EGGS. Yippeee!

My entire college career consisted pretty much of being in the band. Football, basketball, hockey – it was a great way to see all the games.

Aaaagh! I’ve been at that Cats game for SOOO long and I’m still 1,000 points shy of getting on the board. I’m saying “We’re walking, everybody walk. No, sit, sit, sit!!!” to the point I’m worrying about myself.

I was just about to check out the lemmings when Elvis decided to start a rousing game of hide and seek. These online games are fun, but they can’t replace my cat and me chasing each other around the house. Better get back to my hidey spot…

OMG jaypo! Thank you for letting me know I’m not the only human being out there who thinks double yolks are the neatest thing ever!

I was showing my husband an old photo album, and he pointed to one photo and asked “WTF?” It was a picture of a skillet with 3 sunny-side up double yolked eggs frying in it. I *tried* to explain why I felt it necessary to photograph the moment… but he just didn’t get it.

All it takes is one brief glance to know this pales in cuteness comparison (cu-comp) to katamari damacy! The song and intro alone are enough to leave me a ‘deafeated by the brilliance of cuteness’ puddle on the floor – check it out http://katamari.namco.com/

For those who compare Loco Roco to Katamari and say it falls short in cuteness/is a ripoff of Katamari/etc., have you tried playing it yet? I’ve had the chance to play the Japanese version and it is so cute it’s almost painful. And this is coming from someone who owns (and adores) all the Katamari games. Katamari is zany, strange cute. Loco Roco is happy cute. Can’t they be equally cute in their own ways?

Oh, and to ‘doh’- I wouldn’t say Loco Roco is a ripoff of Katamari, in fact it’s more like Super Monkey Ball in that you control the environment and the roco-blobs just go with the flow. Just my 2 cents.
